Amazing Views From An Airplane

Traveling on an airplane always makes me feel like a bird. That's because you get a 'bird's eye view' of the entire city you were just in a couple minutes ago and feels so great to have that amount of change of perspective. If you ever kept looking out the window and felt a philosophical feeling in your heart about "life", you know what I'm talking about.

Anyways, yesterday, I came back to India after visiting my parents in Nepal and I captured some really amazing views from the plane. I was flying out of Kathmandu and as you may know, Kathmandu city is a valley and it surrounded by beautiful, lush green hills that are just breathtaking to look at from that height.

Take a look at this photo for example, and you'll know what I mean. Isn't this truly a sight to behold? One of nature's finest works in my opinion.

This was the view of the city as the plane had just taken off.

It's really difficult to believe that it is the same city that was hit by an almost 8 Richter magnitude a couple years back.

This photo below is one of my favorite shots. To me, it really has that mystic feel to it. The play of the depth and height make it so much more appealing. People actually live on top of these hills.

I am not a photographer. Not by a long shot. Not even an amateur one. So, if my attempt at being 'artistic' with this glass of coke fails to impress you, I apologize!

This was a really delicious meal. Really! I know airplane food is considered not tasty in general, but this was good!

This is my wondering face, if any of you ever wondered!

I also managed to capture a couple photos of the sunset. Sunsets are always beautiful, no matter what. There is something about the colors and how they wash the entire sky with a sort of calm and serenity.
